Westminster Abbey'a Monuments.

Some OF the monuments tower up TO the
height of twenty feet or more, perhaps to
the height of thirty feet. Great Britain is
carved all over tho bases OF them weeping
for her sons. Judging by the number of
these sons her lamentations are incessant,
and she would seem 10 be a kind of prcfes-
sional funeral mourner. The lion il seen
disconsolate, wiping his eye with his paw.
The unicorn is in deep melancholy. the
statesmen rise up III their robes of peers
calmly gazing off into the depths of the
cathedral. Here and there some entirely
forgotten person has made the marble
howl. One tomb represents mans wife
snatched away by death, who is coming
coming out of the grave in his bones and
shroud 10 claim. her, and the husband is
squaring of at him, as nearly as ! can
recolIect.
The attempt to make marble do too
much on funeral occasions often leads TO
an emotion in the spectator between ey-
element. wonder and smiles. Some actors
are put in here like Garrick. The monu-
ment 10 Shakespeare has been often copied,
but is a poor composition, andi represents
Shakespeare leaning over Z kind of table
as he stands where his play books are
being studied. Perhaps the most eff
fective thing in the poets line is Ben
JonSon's tomb, which merely says: ''Oh,

THE IRISH SHILLALAH.

The good old fashioned shillalah
is the weapon after all. In another
column is an account of riot in
Pennsylvania between Irish and
italian laborers. The Dago's opened
the ball with their national weapon,
the stilleto, fanked with knives and
razors, and in few minutes they
had the Irish routed with several
bleeding to death in the cutters.
The Irish retreated to a corner
grocery, and breaking open az bar
rel of pick handles armed them
selves at once and returned to the
fray. In about two minutes they
were cracking the skulls of the Ital-
ians and knocking them galley
west, as if they had been SO many
woodchucks.
The instant an Irishman gets a
shillalah in his right fist he fears
nothing less than a gatling gun.

NEVADA SOIL.

correspondent OF the Reno
Journal writes as follows:
I was pleased to read in your
paper few days ago an editorial
that gave the key note on the soil
of Nevada. You said the soil of
Nevada consisted of decomposed
rocks-all soils are from the same
source, but all soils do not contain
in quality the same ingredients.
The chemistry OF plant-making is
not known, but some matters are
sufficiently known to lead to an in
telligent conclusion on the subject
of soils. Certain soils in Ohio have
produced for eighty years, without
addition from manures, eighthy bush
els of corn per acre; yet these soils
do not differ from the soils in New
England that are almost barren,
except in relation to plant life. The
soils in Ohio are more decomposed
than the soils of the same nature in
New England, and because of that
fact, better adapted for vegetable
growth. All the nutritious properties
in vegetable composition are made
up of mineral in some form; the
plant takes from the earth and air
such properties as are necessary for
its life and structure. The vegetable
kingdom depends on inorganic mat
ter for life, taking from the earth
and air such properties as are re-
quired for the plant. Animal bod
les take from the vegetable world
and from each other, such proper
ties as are necessary for their life
and structure; yet both kingdoms
are dependent on the same source
for supplies. Some soils are bet
ter adapted for furnishing these sup
plies than others, from more than
one cause. Nevada's soil, from
some cause, appears to be we'll
adapted for furnishing the necessary
plant-food for full and complete de-
velopment in growth and quality.
To show why this is so would re-
quire more space than you could
give to the subject. 1t being true
that all nutritious properties in
vegetable matter are derived from
decomposed mineral substances,
should we be surprised when we
find in the apparently barren soil OF
Nevada a grand adaptation for veg
etable growth ? or that the grasses
and other vegetable matter pro-
duced is of the best possible quality
for producing fat and muscle, or
that the fat and muscle produced is
of the best texture and flavor, when
we know that everything which is
necessary for a superior develop
ment of vegetable and animal
growth is present in large quanti-
ties in the soil, and will be present
for all time in the decomposed min
eral substance so abundant in the
State. There are but few rocks
in Nevada that do not contain one
or more of the minerals necessary
to plant and animal life. So album
dant are these decomposed minerals
that their hydrates may be found in
every par. of the State in large or
limited quantities wherever water
rests and is evaporated. Notwith-
standing our soil shows its origin
more fully than alluvial does by the
ever-present gravel, yet no soil,
wholly alluvial, contains the forces
necessary for finished work in veg
etable growth that is contained in
the decomposed mineral soil of Ne
vada.

have an acquaintance who sat on several
juries in the famous Ring trials. Speaking
the other day about the Sharp trial and the
long pull for jury, he remarked:
''If we had been asked such questions as
they ask the jurymen nowadays, the old Boss
and pals would be out on bail yet Why, at
that time there wasn't a man in New York
eligible for jury duty that didn't have opin-
ions that either the prosecution or defense
would rule him out on now. And yet think
the Ring trials were fair ones and the iuries
generally did their duty"

They are not only more searching, but they
are delivered in a way much more severe and
embarrassing to the juror. "Men had opin-

opinion upon reasonable proof of its fallacy,
and the result generally showed that the
assumption was correct. Alfred Trumble in

An Expert Whisky faster,

"When you hear people talk about this
whisky or that being good" said an agent Of
a wholesale liquor house who was just re-
turning from a trip TO Kentucky, "you can
say to yourself that the whisky may be either
good or bad, and that the man who drinks
and smacks bis lips knows nothing at all
about it Telling good whisky from bad is
an art which few people acquire l buy
thousands of barrels of whisky every year,
and as / buy on my own judgment it is not
conceited in me to say that know something
about the business. In the first place, no man
can be q judge of whisky who drinks it. For
two years have tasted whisky dozens Of
times day, but in all that time I have not
drunk as much as gill A glass of whisky
day would destroy my usefulness. Drink
ing the liquor blunts the fine sense Of taste
whisky expert must possess, and absolute
temperance is the first essential More than
that, man must have fine natural taste to
begin with, and must be careful what he eats
or drinks. ! can't eat onion, or cheese, or
drink beer, or even soda water, or any highly
spiced food, and retain that keen taste on
which "a be willing to base an order for fifty
or 100 barr IS Of whisky. When l started in
this business J spent three months educating
my taste, going 70 the cellar three times daily
and smelling of $50 casks of whisky Of diff
ferent brands. At the end of that period I
was taken blindfolded into that cellar, and
as they rolled the barrels up to me / told
them every brand simply through my olfac-
tories.
Reputation is everything ia the whisky
business. There are IL the trade about LOCO
brands, with about forty brands in the lead
as the generally popular goods. / can tell
every one of these by taste or smell, just as
surely as if / were reading the brands on the
ends of the casks. The professional whisky
faster always dilutes the liquor with water,
and sometimes he heats the water and whisky
together after mixing. His taste is so fine as
to be almost infallible, and it is next to i'm
possible to fool him. The men who guzzle
liquor may be able to tell high proof goods
from that which is rank and raw, but that is
about all they can do. Whisky regulations
are made or married by the professional
tasters, and it is on their Judgment and die
tum that the trade is carried on As you
may imagine, a man with good mouth for
whisky is likely to find his taste a source Of
